Two dialysis fluid exchanges to improve blood pressure in children
Part of Kidney & urinary clinical trials.
This study tests whether using two evening dialysis fluid bags (with a special fluid called icodextrin) can help control blood pressure better than the usual one bag. This might be helpful for children who have high blood pressure and low urine output while on peritoneal dialysis.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your child must be between 5 and 18 years old.
- Your child must have been on peritoneal dialysis (CAPD or CCPD) for at least 4 weeks.
- Your child must have high blood pressure (confirmed by a 24-hour blood pressure monitor).
- Your child must pass very little urine (less than 200 ml per day).
- Your child must not be allergic to starch or have certain metabolic conditions.

This trial tests a modified version of daily peritoneal dialysis (M-CAPD) versus the standard version (C-CAPD) for children in low-resource settings who have end-stage kidney disease. It aims to see if the modified schedule works better for clearing waste and fluid.
This study tests whether a special dialysis fluid called icodextrin can help people on a low-dose form of peritoneal dialysis stay on that low dose longer before needing a full dose. It is for adults who still make some urine and can do dialysis at home.
This trial tests a way of doing peritoneal dialysis (a type of home dialysis for kidney failure) that uses a special fluid called icodextrin once a day. It aims to see if this approach is safe and works well for people who are just starting dialysis and still pass urine.
This study tests whether changing the amount of salt in your dialysis fluid can help lower blood pressure and improve blood vessel health. If you are on dialysis, this could be a way to feel better and reduce heart risks.
This study looks at improving how well dialysis removes waste from the blood and uses water in children. It may help make treatments more effective and efficient.
This study looks at how blood pressure changes during hemodialysis and how much fluid is removed, to see what approach works best for controlling blood pressure. It may help dialysis patients whose blood pressure is often high before or after treatment.
